Acura has just started releasing pictures of it’s 2009 TL sport sedan. The new TL carries the new family face of Acura. If anything Acura has lacked a design identity for as long as they have been around.

The new TL combines crisp lines with soft curves to make a blend that’s quite unlike anything that has been seen recently. Whether it works or not is up to the public, but opinions have already started flooding the net and they haven’t been positive so far.

Acura says the new TL will have “the most powerful Acura engine ever.” when it goes on sale this fall. Even bigger news on the technical front is the addition of the Super Handling All-Wheel Drive system already employed on the company’s flagship RL sedan.

Pricing has not been announced yet, but expect more info and technical data to start appearing as you read this. We’ll keep you updated as more comes to light.
